BYC members in Massachusetts?

[HappyClucker7]

Cannot take. Best wishes finding them a good home. They are very handsome boys.

I actually found a sanctuary that will take both of them!

Oh, I am so glad to hear it. Good for you!

Hey, Massachusetts BYC folks. I am looking for a quail enclosure for outdoors. I would be happy with a bunny hutch type thing, or a repurposed small chicken coop with attached run. anybody have such a thing they would sell me?

Did you find anything? If not, when do you need it? I have an Orpington Lodge from Chicken Coop Company that is way too small for when my birds are fully grown, but I need to build another one before I can offload this one.

I know this thread isn’t very active anymore but I was hoping somebody might know of a good place for horseback riding lessons on the south shore? TIA

Middleton area BEAR EATING CHICKENS !
https://www.wcvb.com/article/bear-sightings-middleton-massachusetts-eats-chickens/40864889

make sure that you lock your hens up good !
If you can't then get some sheet plywood and put nails through it, flip it over so the bear has to step on the nail to get to chickens. This is a great deterrent and is use in Alaska to keep bears out of cabins.
Harsh but better then loosing your chickens / ducks / rabbits
